Yep. Hoosier 10.5w stiff sidewall. Car weighs 3350 w/ me in it and maybe makes 550HP. Stock front suspension. SS Springs and HD truck shocks in the back. PG trans. I leave very soft at 4000 RPM and can cut a decent light. 60' times are somewhat consistent. They vary .02 - .03.

Joe Capri85 - with being at min. weight, having 800HP, and running a 14.5 tire - you would not need a stiff sidewall. In fact, you'd be better with a soft sidewall.
